Person-centred Counselling
for those
Affected by Infidelity

Infidelity can be a deeply painful and life-altering experience for everyone involved. Whether you have been betrayed, have been unfaithful, or are the third party in an affair, the emotional impact can be overwhelming. Person-centred counselling offers a safe, non-judgemental space to explore your thoughts and feelings, helping you find clarity, healing, and a way forward.
How Can Person-Centred Counselling Help?
For the Betrayed Partner
Discovering a partner’s infidelity can trigger a range of emotions—shock, anger, sadness, confusion, and even self-doubt. Counselling provides a space to:
Process emotions – Express and understand your feelings without pressure or judgement.
Rebuild self-esteem – Infidelity can shake your sense of worth. Counselling helps restore confidence and self-acceptance.
Explore the future – Whether you wish to repair the relationship or move on, therapy supports your choices.
Heal from betrayal trauma – Infidelity can feel like a deep emotional wound. Counselling provides tools to manage trust issues, anxiety, or depression.
For the Unfaithful Partner
If you have been unfaithful, you may be struggling with guilt, shame, regret, or confusion about why the affair happened. Counselling can help you:
Understand your actions – Explore what led to the affair without judgement.
Take responsibility – Reflect on the impact of your choices and work towards personal growth.
Communicate openly – If rebuilding the relationship is your goal, therapy can help develop honesty and understanding.
Manage guilt and self-forgiveness – Healing requires acknowledging mistakes while allowing yourself to move forward in a healthier way.
For the Affair Partner
Being involved in an affair—whether knowingly or unknowingly—can bring its own emotional struggles. You may feel guilt, heartbreak, isolation, or uncertainty about your role in the situation. Counselling can provide support to:
Process complex emotions – Understand and work through feelings of love, loss, guilt, or regret.
Navigate difficult choices – Whether you want to end or move on from the affair, therapy offers a space to explore your options.
Work through self-worth concerns – Being in an affair can impact self-esteem. Counselling helps foster self-compassion and personal growth.
A Safe and Confidential Space
Infidelity can be a deeply personal and painful issue, often surrounded by secrecy and shame. Person-centred counselling offers a confidential, non-judgemental environment where you can talk openly and explore your emotions without fear of criticism.
Moving Forward
Whether you are looking to heal, rebuild, or simply make sense of what has happened, counselling can help you navigate this difficult time. Infidelity does not have to define your future—support is available to help you find the best path forward for you.
